SNOW---OCTOBER---RABBITS!!
Posted: Thu Oct 01, 2009 4:03 am
RABBITS! First day of October, I remembered to say RABBITS when I woke up in the early morning to stoke the fire, and it's SNOWING!!
My satellite TV is having trouble with local stations this morning----I can't get any of them again. I'll have to wait for daylight after school to see what's up with the dish---maybe the wind knocked it off kilter again the other night. But it was fine last night when I went to bed, and I didn't hear any more winds. Surely it can't be snowing THAT hard to interfere with the signal?
Hot coffee tastes good and the wood fire feels great in here----it's right about freezing temperature out there, and snowing like crazy! October is coming in with a flourish, all-righty! Pull up a chair and warm yourselves, inside and out, and let us know what your day in this new month will bring.
I just checked outside on the deck, and it looks as if it's already stopped snowing. My camera is still out in the trailer or I would take a pic of the white dusting on the ground---maybe I'll go get it and edit this message in a bit.
Happy October to us all----time to read "October's Bright Blue Weather" by Helen Hunt Jackson. If you get a chance, plug the title into Google and read that neat poem----one we had to memorize and write perfectly in the 4th grade. I still remember most of it, and our Octobers up here are much like Helen describes in her graphic poem.
